Summary

A Biomass Waste EFW facility located in Tansterne, near Hull, which is based processing up to 150,000 tonnes per annum of Wood Waste generating 22MW of electricity to the grid[1].

It was funded and developed by Solar 21 in partnership with Heat Recovery Solutions (HRS) Ltd[2]. The plant became fully operational in February 2018. The cost of the project was an estimated £35m[3].

In 2016 Probio Energy International won the contract to be sole supplier of the Wood Waste to the facility[4].

Plant

The biomass power plant utilises a twin line fluidised bed gasification combustion system, heat recovery and power module technology developed by HRS, a subsidiary HRS Energy Ltd which was manufactured in Hull by project partner CF Struthers, the sister company to HRS Energy[5]. Each line has a maximum throughput in the order of 16 tonnes per hour[6].

In September 2019 the O&M contractor HRS Energy Tansterne Ltd (HRSET) went into administration. HRSET had originally held the long term O&M contract. The plant is now owner-operated by GIB-Bio Ltd which is a subsidiary of Solar 21, the owners of the facility[1].

The plant has been built to be 'CHP ready' so that when a district heating market becomes available, the provision of heat to supply a local network will be achievable without any modification to the installed system[7].

Annual Sustainability Tonnage Input/Fuel

The tonnage[8] received by the plant in the most recent Annual Sustainability Report and for the previous 3 years for 2020/21 was reported by Ofgem as below[9]:

Year Waste Wood (m3) Waste Wood (t) Straw Miscanthus Arboricultrual Waste Sawmill Residue Foresrty Residue Round Wood Short Rotation Coppice MBM Other Material
2020/21 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
2019/20 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
2018/19 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
2017/18 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Waste Tonnage, By Origin

The table shows a list of the Waste for the Permit WP3738DE, that has arrived into sites as reported to the Regulator and then publicised in their reported statistics. The Data used is from the most recent returns. The total reported tonnage arriving at the site was: Expression error: Unexpected < operator.t.

Where this tonnage exceeds that reported in year of the corresponding annual report, this may be due to the following reasons:

  • Tonnage may have been received but not incinerated, i.e. the material is held pending incineration (the operator return to the EA reports as received whereas the annual report focuses on when the waste is incinerated.)
  • Material may have been received into the site but treated in some other way than incineration.
  • Material may have been received on the but transferred out of site for disposal/treatment at another site rather than incineration on the site.
